Why network marketing today?
In the day of social media we just cannot side step the fact we are all online networking in some form with others we know with short crisp messages, updating family and friends with pictures and videos of favorite restaurants, hotels, movies etc we love.
The fact of the matter is in the Philippines I see Filipinos are smart and are used to sharing and have realized that this could be extra income for them. They are always on the lookout for companies that could help them to make extra income.
So in fact the term multilevel marketing is just a term for marketing via networks and connecting organizations together by relationships. Trust is the basis of the transaction and for the cost saving in advertising large multi-nationals save, goes to the individuals called distributors who make it all happen.
Fortunately in network marketing most companies don’t expect you to have a large inventory. This allows ordinary people to start a business with 15,000 pesos to 30,000 php and the potential to make well over 200K with some part time consistent effort in their free time.
Let me emphasis that you should treat your home based business seriously and do this as a serious part time business. If you go about networking in your spare time you will just get spare time or casual results.
Joining a home base business opportunity is easy, just find the right mentor who is serious in helping you along this awesome journey of financial freedom.

Home Based Business Tips On Earning Extra In The Philippines
February 6, 2011 by admin
Filed under The Philippines
Check everything out.
I am sitting in the Seattle’s Best Coffee, a cafe in Greenbelt 2, Makati City, Philippines. This is day 8 and the start of week 2 in the Philippines here after I arrived from Brisbane last Sunday.
This year I am even more focused on my mission here in Manila looking for the keen business developer who wants to partner me in my growth in my global home based business here in the Philipines.
Unlike last year I am not interested in taking time out in helping people if they are not ready for change. How do I create change in people if they don’t want to initiate it. Yes, it does take extra effort and a bit of time but “Nothing Changes If Nothing Changes!”
In the last 7 years in network marketing, I have realized that for my business to grow I had to implement change from the top and that starts with me. Here are some of the changes I have started to place into my life:…
- I am Placing myself where positive people mingle…
- I have started to ask people more powerful than me for help. This maybe for ideas, mentorship or direction in what I do. I am also asking them to endorse me to family and friends. …
- This year I am looking for just 2 or 3 focused people who want change badly.
This short list has helped me to stay focus and not to look at all the noise and fuss that happens when you are sharing a networking marketing business with people. I am looking for people who want more out of life and want it now.
They should not have excuses and use time, money or family as a reason why they should wait. These people must be willing to come in at the business level, be willing to be mentored and be taught what makes the business work if they are to join my team in business.
They should not question the system but rather find out how they can use the business model in building a successful home based business in the Philippines and globally. Having an acceptance that business does have an initial investment, running cost both monthly and yearly and some consistent work is a must for success.
If you have what it takes to become successful, not afraid of change and can learn from failures to grow more powerful then let’s hear from you.
One of the most important qualities I am looking for is the ability to learn and help others to learn. Passing on knowledge is foremost in networking business and I am willing to help you learn all of this. You will have to give me your time and energy for the first month and do everything I ask you to do if you want to join my team.

Earn Extra Income With Strong Relationships
December 20, 2010 by admin
Filed under Business Building Tips
With a background in traditional business I tend to lean on any of the similariies found in conventional business.
One of those similarities is building networks or relationships.
I find that people who join a network marketing company are so eager to jump off the fence and begin earning income that they tend to find building a solid business a difficult thing to do.
And why is that so!
Here is an interesting case study that might help you if you have a home based business and find it hard to earn income.
Let me share this with you…
Recently I visited a business lady in Manila, Philippines, who has now become a close friend of mine. In the office of Mrs Tundag business, in Pasig last week I learn’t a few lessons in relationship building.
Sophia Tundag from Queen-S International Trading Company is a highly respected business lady in the iron and steel circles. In fact she is the only lady who sits in on the panel of that board in Manila.
And why do men who are 20 years her senior respect her.
Let me tell you a short story which may highlight how she gains respect.
Mrs Tundag had lost a contract from a large iron and steel scrap metal firm in Baltimore, USA. In spite of losing the contract which happened due to business conflict, she still managed to maintain a friendly relationalship with the firm’s managers.
In December 2010, the firm sent one of their managers to Manila to source out an agent to represent them in the Philippine region.
The uS Embassy had narrowed down 2 potential business firms to be interviewed for the agent’s position later that week.
Due to open communication between the two parties, Sophia and the US manager met as the manager dealing with teh case still enjoyed a good friendship with Sophia inspite of not being business partners.
The US company had actually 10 years ago helped to put the Philippine company run by Sophia on the trading map. This was something that Sophia was deeply indebted for and wanted to pay back the favour one day. She felt that the timing was right to give back now.
She volenteered to take this US manager around Manila to show him the steel business so that when he met up with potential agents he would be better informed.
She knew that she was given him valued information even though he was instructed by his firm not to give her any business. She was doing it for one reason: Giving back!
She certainly has a Plentiful Mindset!
After two days of intensive driving around the busy streets of Manila, She said good bye to the US manager from the steel company. It was a long tiring two days and she was giving away her time for nothing.
Sophia sat back in her chair that evening and and looked at me and said..”Claude I felt really happy to have done that. I just wanted to repay that favour”.
I smiled and said to Mrs Tundag that I have grown to admire her for her integrity and generosity.
I then asked her.. “so what happened to the selection of the agents for the steel company”. Did she know who had won the contract and who was going to be competing with her in the business now”.
Sophia informed me that when the manager saw the level of respect she had from the business community in the Philippines, he with drew his other nominations the day before his Embassy meeting, and made his company bosses to nominate Queen-S Trading as their business partner in the region.
What a Win-Win moment for both sides.
A Claude moment…
Whenever you do business, take it a upon yourself to build relationships first before you go after business.
The person whom you are building the friendship with will look pass you and see the integrity you have and will learn to trust you in the near future.
I hope you can use this little story to build you a good home based business in your own company.
